Semester abroad

In the third year of study no compulsory modules are scheduled. The students continue choosing courses from the Required Elective Area and the Free Elective Area. Therefore, the 5th semester facilitates the recognition of externally collected credit points and provides the ideal mobility window. Interested students can spend a semester abroad at one of the partner universities or as a self-organised research stay.
